  1. Towing a 1500lb camper trailer with hybrid?

    I made a rudimentary calculator based off of Ford's towing guide on MS Excel, and I will attach it here if you are interested in playing around with that to figure out how much exactly you can tow and haul. The calculator is currently set up for a '22 Hybrid XLT with lux package, and depending...
  2. Just towed trailer 200 miles with XLT EcoBoost 4K Tow AWD (Santa Cruz to Lucerne CA through 3 mountain passes)

    Ford has a pretty in-depth towing guide if you want to be really precise with what exactly your Maverick can tow. Here is a Maverick towing summary: https://www.ford.com/cmslibs/content/dam/brand_ford/en_us/brand/cpo/pdf/2023_Ford_Maverick_Towing_Info_Dec16.pdf Here is the full 2022 towing...
  3. Am Done With Ford

    There are a lot of car manufacturers phasing out AM radios in cars and trucks nowadays... I think that one of the big reasons that this is happening is because the electrical systems in electric vehicles tend to produce more electrical interference in the AM band, causing static, hissing, high...

    For sale: one set of two bed side rails, each with one adjustable tie down cleat and two end caps. $230, Shipping through UPS included in price!!! These two bed side rails were lightly used and came off of my Maverick when I replaced them with box strut channel. I reused the mounting hardware...
  6. Ring Car Camera (dash cam security camera) installed

    I have not personally had Deep Sleep issues with this OBDII dash camera. I will be changing the camera's timer and sleep settings to stay active longer as I become more comfortable with the camera, but it seems to be very cautious with 'vehicle-off' battery draw in its most conservative settings.
  7. Ring Car Camera (dash cam security camera) installed

    I also recently installed a ring car cam in my hybrid Maverick. -Installation: I liked the ease-of-installation and the simplicity of the unit. Power is supplied via OBDII adapter, and the power cable gets routed up and along the side of the dashboard, and then tucked down in the gap behind the...
  8. Is Hybrid Compatible with Ring Car Cam?

    In my experience with my Maverick so far, I have only had my truck sit long enough to enter deep sleep once. I was waiting on replacement parts and my truck was sitting on the lot at my local dealership for a few weeks, and my truck went into deep sleep after two weeks. I basically drive every...
  9. Is Hybrid Compatible with Ring Car Cam?

    I would like to install the new Ring Car Cam in my Hybrid Ford Maverick, but I was a little concerned when I saw that it is designed to wire directly into the ODB2 port. I recall there being issues with OBD2 adapter dash cameras specifically with the Hybrid, and was unsure if there would be...
  10. Let’s try to fix this major hybrid issue together

    I have been having the same issue with my truck. Glad to see that Ford has service bulletins regarding this transmission on other similar vehicles. I will be emailing my service department today!!
  11. FORScan Mod – Enable Eco Coach Mode

    Has anybody with a Hybrid and the 4-inch screen attempted this mod yet?
  12. Finally got it! Initial 4-hour drive home in Maverick XLT Hybrid review

    Congratulations on receiving your truck! I am also a recent college grad; I bought my truck at MSRP, and I am really excited that even after 8 months and 20,000 miles, KBB still puts its value at more than I paid for it! Definitely feels like a steal. (y)
  13. My Exhaust was Stolen off of my Hybrid.

    Update on the situation: - I got my Maverick back, total cost of repairs including what insurance paid was about $2500. This was for a new exhaust assembly from the catalytic converter flange to the back of the truck, new exhaust clamps, two new rear brake lines, new brake fluid, and labor. The...
  14. Tailgate tie down anchors / hooks that work with Tailgate Assist strut -- installed pics

    Does the tailgate damper prevent tailgate "bouncing" when driving with the tailgate down? I went over a speed bump forgetting my tailgate was down, and I just about cried the tailgate slammed so hard, LOL
  15. Hybrid or EB for freeway commute?

    I drive 750 - 1000 miles a week all highways going 65-70mph, and I average about 42 mpg in my hybrid Maverick. As for inclement weather and snow, I drove my Civic in about 5 inches of snow and could make it home, so I expect the Maverick should do at least as well. Of course, NJ doesn’t get...
  16. My Exhaust was Stolen off of my Hybrid.

    I finally decided on a protection scheme for my exhaust! I purchased a "Cat Strap" and will attach it to the exhaust pipe after the catalytic converter flange, and before the auxiliary heater. I am purchasing it from https://www.catstrap.net/ . It feels a little silly to protect a resonator...
  17. Who still LOVES thier Maverick after 10k miles?

    Over 12,000 miles since March and still loving the Maverick!!! I really like the heated seats because they heat up much quicker than other cars I have ridden in. The hottest setting is great for lower back pain, too. My truck says it's getting a little over 42mpg, and hand calculations say I...
  18. My Exhaust was Stolen off of my Hybrid.

    @Buschur , thank you for your response! If I had your level of skill in building awesome performance vehicles, I would probably not be driving a hybrid either! :D At the very least for the EB Maverick, glad to hear that the truck would still be able to perform well without the secondary cat.
  19. My Exhaust was Stolen off of my Hybrid.

    I appreciate everybody's suggestions and input on the situation! I am planning on discussing options with my dealer and the local police, and will let you know what I end up doing. Thanks again, and stay safe!! Caleb
  20. My Exhaust was Stolen off of my Hybrid.

    @Buschur , does the Hybrid also have two cats, or is that a resonator before the auxiliary heather underneath the truck? I have looked online and through the forums, and cannot seem to find a definitive consensus. Thanks, Caleb
